Mikasa Crystal Ribbed Park Lane Floral Vase

This is a contemporary tall floral vase crafted from clear lead crystal by Mikasa, likely from the Park Lane or a similar ribbed pattern collection. The vase features a tapered cylindrical form that widens from a circular, stable base toward a broad rim. Its most defining physical characteristic is the consistent vertical linear ribbing or fluting that runs from the base to the top, creating a classic Art Deco-inspired aesthetic and providing a play of light and shadow through the crystal body. The construction exhibits high-quality pressing or molding, evidenced by the sharp, clean lines of the ribs. The color is exceptionally clear with high transparency, typical of fine lead crystal. While no specific maker's mark is visible through the glass in this photograph, the pattern is consistent with Mikasa production from the late 20th century (circa 1980s-1990s). The condition appears excellent with no visible chips, cracks, or heavy clouding, though minor surface scratches on the bottom from table contact would be expected under closer inspection. The weight and refractive quality suggest a high lead content, which is a hallmark of Mikasa's reputation for luxury glassware during this era. It serves as both a functional decorative piece and a collectible example of period-specific glass manufacturing.
